GAZA, (PIC)-- Israeli navy boats opened
heavy fire at Palestinian fishing boats off the coasts of Gaza and
Rafah cities at dawn Monday, Quds Press reported.It said that the fishermen abandoned their boats and returned back to the shore without finishing their work.The Israeli navy had tightened its
restrictions on Palestinian fishermen since 2000 and by 2009 the navy
deprived fishermen from their right to fish more than three nautical
miles off the Gaza Strip’s coast while the Oslo accords allowed them
fishing up to 20 nautical miles.
